Waited up three night in a row to capture the babies. I only managed to get 25 out of hundreds and all were dead by the next morning. I am assuming due to transfer. Now I have added three tiles surrounding the area they like to nest. However they keep finding ways around the tiles to clean their nest site. Anyone have any suggestions on how to make the tiles more suitable?

Is there any way to remove the rock, or rearrange the tank?

They are in a frag tank with anemones attached to the rocks. I could move the pair to a bare tank in my broodstock system in a week or two once its up and running.
